Yesterday I did deep knee bends on the es-ca-la-tour coming out of the Metro.

Yesterday I got yelled at in Printemps for shooting these adorable Christian Lacroix faces on a scarf.

Yesterday I went into Zara and bought a super thick cashmere pull for only 99 euros.

Yesterday I went home. And ate a smooshed Matcha Green tea dome of Sadaharu Aoki hoping it would keep me up till 3 AM, so Jet Lag in NYC wouldn't be so terrible, but I fell asleep at 11 PM exhausted from everything I did yesterday/hier.

Carol,This was such a wonderful funny post!! It just delighted me, the way you shared your wacky, foodie, adventure-filled day with us. I love the bit about you getting yelled at, twice, and the smushed dessert, and the clothes, and what you ate, and all the rest of it. Thanks!

Poor you.. I mean they sell things..people can buy them and bring them home and photo.I took photos at our local flea market of dried flower arrangements a few years ago etc to make cards to sell for the community firemen's fund..They said no:(Bah Humbug.

The last day is always so intense tying up so many loose ends! Seems you did it all though...and ate well along the way. The night before, I always pack EVERYTHING back to see if there is any room left in the suitcases! (Or do I need to buy another bag to check!)I love the shirts and the Lacroix scarves.

I loved this !So many goodies ... and welcome to the club, I don't get "yelled" at but I do get angry looks and fingers wagged at me for pulling out the camera sometimes. Oh well.. c'est la vie :)besos, C

What? they yelled at you! do they not know what free advertisement they get to thousands of future Paris visitors? Such a fun packed last day you had! Thanks for taking us along.wish I could have finished off that ganachey cake!

Bonjour PB~This was a great post!I had to laugh when you commented about being "yelled" at ....I too was "yelled aat" "NO photos, madame" in Galeries Lafayette!I can't believe you eat all that in one day!!!~Suzanne

Great shots as always!I like your food selections, the "snack" looks good.I love the La Bon Marche shots - too bad you got yelled at.....The girl on the "rollers" must have been practicing for years :)Are you home?

Hi I'm Carol Gillott,
My Mom taught me watercolors at 5. I'm still at it but now tripping over cobblestones on l'Ile Saint-Louis In Paris. Savor Parisbreakfast with a hot chocolate and croissant.
